===1992β1995: Death Row Records=== RBX joined [[Death Row Records]] in 1992 with his cousins [[Snoop Dogg]] and [[Daz Dillinger]].<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.discogs.com/artist/RBX|title= RBX Discography|access-date=21 March 2009 |work= Discogs}}</ref> A former college student and retail manager, Collins declined to sign blank contracts like his Death Row brethren. His tenure on the label would be brief but memorable. Having made commanding cameos on ''[[The Chronic]]'' in 1992 and ''[[Doggystyle]]'' in 1993, RBX left the label in 1994 and signed with the lesser known Premeditated Entertainment. He released ''[[The RBX Files]]'' in 1995, his debut solo album that was produced by former Chronic production team member Greg "Gregski" Royal. The album abandoned the popular West Coast [[G-Funk]] style in favor of a "gritty, dungeon-like" sound more associated with New York. The single "A.W.O.L." was an attack on Death Row, Suge Knight, Dre, and others, with X comparing the dubious business practices there to the days of [[Ruthless Records]], [[Jerry Heller]], and [[Eazy-E]]. In a YouTube interview with [[DJ Vlad|VladTV]] he talked about an altercation over food between him and Suge Knight, in which Knight pulled out a gun.
